Precise Bottle Opening Animation Made with Mocap

Senior animator Zygi Neviera showcased a nice sequence of a person opening a bottle. Its sharp movements were achieved with motion capture using the Xsens Link suit and Manus gloves.

Neviera also brought it further in Unreal Engine with an unusual camera angle, promising a possible MetaHuman interaction "with proper mouth contact" and facial animation.

The artist is obviously no stranger to character animation. See how he masterfully turned simple primitives into bouncing Vi from Arcane.
